BEEF STEW WITH SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS AND BABY VEGETABLES
Steps:
- Place flour in baking pan. Season with salt and pepper. Melt 4 tablespoons butter in heavy large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Working in batches, coat meat with flour; add to pot and brown on all sides. Using slotted spoon, transfer to plate.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in same pot over medium-high heat. Add onions; sauté until tender, about 6 minutes. Mix in tomato paste, then wine. Bring to boil, scraping up any browned bits. Add broth and sugar, then beef and any accumulated juices. Bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover partially and simmer 1 1/2 hours.
- Add potatoes and carrots; simmer uncovered until meat and vegetables are almost tender, about 25 minutes. Add squash; simmer until almost tender, about 10 minutes. Add mushrooms and 3 tablespoons marjoram; simmer until mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cool slightly. Cover, chill. Before serving, cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally.)
BEEF CHUCK ROAST STEW (BABY FOOD)
My 1 year old loves this stew. I made this for her at about 10 months old. Easy to puree and freeze. One stop meal. Not bad for adults either - even without any seasoning. Just make sure your baby has been introduced to all the ingredients before serving. Servings are approximate. I calculated 3 cubes per serving - your little one might eat more or less depending on age. Add pasta or rice if you want to include a whole grain to the meal.

Steps:
- 1. Place potato, carrots, celery, and water in a microwave-safe dish. Cover and microwave 3 minutes on high or until tender. Let stand covered. 2. Over medium heat, sauté garlic, green onion, and bell pepper with oil. Add beef and cook 2 to 3 minutes or until thoroughly cooked. 3. Combine vegetables and beef mixture. Chop to the appropriate texture for your baby or puree. Finely chopping veggies cuts cooking time, but it also makes it easy to overcook them, leading to lost nutrients. Use minimal water when veggies are finely chopped and expect shorter cooking time.
